🔥Resistance. Every. Day. 🔥

🔥Resistance. Every. Day.🔥

Called Senators Cornyn and Cruz:

I am calling because I approve of the special counsel investigation into Russia ties, and would like you to support two pieces of legislation that protect Robert Mueller from presidential dismissal. S. 1735 (sponsored by Sen. Graham) and S. 1741 (by Sen. Tillis) both check the president’s power. I urge you to support both of these. Thank you.

🔥Resistance. Every. Day.🔥

Sent postcards to Rep. Pete Olson and Senators Cornyn and Cruz:

I encourage you to support the bipartisan Dream Act that gives permanent legal status to DACA recipients. Please support S. 1615 / H.R. 3440.

🔥Resistance. Every. Day. 🔥

Sent postcard to Elaine C. Duke, Secretary of Homeland Security:

According to reports, my tax dollar is funding abuse, harassment, and malnourishment of immigrants and asylum seekers by ICE officers and detention centers. Further, ICE is also destroying records that could hold them accountable for inhumane actions. Immigrants, law-abiding or not, must be treated with basic human decency. Please initiate an effort to reign in this cruel treatment and unchecked power. America is better than this.

Sent Thank You to Gov. Bruce Rauner of Illinois:

Thank you for committing Illinois to being a sanctuary state. Immigrants deserve to be treated humanely and to live free from fear. Thank you for your leadership and advocacy.

🔥Resistance. Every. Day.🔥

Since President Trump has cut funding for advertising the ACA enrollment period, I shared this link on my FB page: https://www.facebook.com/Jennifer-Hofmann-463228547169366/

Sent a Thank You to Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner:

Thank you for offering to personally represent for free any immigrants facing deportation after seeking help during Hurricane Harvey. Your basic goodness and humanity are a light in dark times.
